Murray’s has a long wait most nights to get in. Having now been there I’m not sure I would wait again for the quality of food served.
The service staff were top notch though. Very lovely people even if they missed some of our order from within the party I was dining with.
The atmosphere was nice. I’m told by locals that Wednesday thru Saturday they have live jazz music but I wasn’t there one of those nights so can’t comment.
Food wise it was nothing to write home about. It was average at best. I had the steak with a side of mash potatoes. I ordered medium rare and it arrived on the upper side of medium. The mash potatoes were just alright. The winning note for Murray’s here is the price. The menu is extremely affordable and because of that it’s not much of a loss on the quality of food.

The food is decent but nothing special. The desert was good! The ambiance was of candle light dinner but crowded. I am sure lot of locals like it, not for me though. The service was great!

Well, over 2000 people have reviewed this place, so I'm not adding anything, but I wanted to try it, so why not?
I found it quaint and lively all at once. Pretty good atmosphere, which is great because it looks like nothing from the outside. A good old-fashioned restaurant feel.
I had the frog legs and philly. Both were good. The philly had a really nice beef flavor that a lot of places lose in the philly making process, or because they just use low quality meat. That wasn't the case here.
Service was good. Almost exceptional. Very good. Kept up with me quite often, and made sure I had what I needed. Got seated quickly too, ahead of time expectations.
Biggest issue is parking. Good luck. Lol
Overall great place.

The food was very tasty... though the buttered toast tasted like they used margarine or some vegetable oil equivalent. I didn't eat it... Fats have a very long-term effect on us. Polyunsaturated fats are not good because they oxidize easily.

One of my absolute favorite restaurants in all of mid-Missouri. The tuna pesto sandwich is absolutely delicious. Quality live music if you are there at the right time, adds to the atmosphere. Great service, reasonable prices - what more can you ask for?

This was my first time here. We came on a Monday night and the place was packed and on a wait! I ordered the Ahi Tuna with our servers recommendations of adding pesto, tomatoes, and feta cheese. We also had the frog legs and they were amazing!

We were sitting pretty close to the jazz band, so it was a little loud, not terrible you just had to raise your voice a bit. The Buffalo wings were amazing, not too saucy, but with a great crispy skin. The onion rings were great, as were the kabobs, fish sandwich, hamburger, and fettuccine with brocoli & chicken. Would definitely recommend
Great place! It's a jazz café but really is more about the food and service. My wife and I found a place at the bar and ordered drinks and appetizers. We had whiskey and wine to go with our sardines (amazing) and Craig's bread also quite good. The wife went for the chicken tortilla soup as many wives do, but it was the service from Daniel the bartender that was top notch. He had a packed lunch crowd and seemed to keep up on drink orders and food. If new in town I highly recommend sitting at the bar and asking about around town, you won't regret it.

This place was absolutely fantastic and I can't wait to go back. Everything was cooked to perfection and seasoned flawlessly. We were immediately surprised when we had the first course which happened to be their onion rings. My husband decided to order the onion rings and I ordered the fries with Brie cheese dip so we could try both. They brought a large amount of onion rings and offered to bring it as an appetizer so we had something to eat while we waited for our main courses. My husband ordered the double pork patty sandwich and I had a grilled cheese. The fries and Brie were a little spicy but they went really well together. The grilled cheese was really good even though I'm pretty picky about grilled cheese. I tried a couple bites of my husband's pork and it tasted amazing. It came with barbecue sauce but the seasoning was perfect and didn't need any sauce. We tried to come back a week later but they had a 25-minute wait on a Tuesday. No surprise- their food is phenomenal. If I didn't have so many tasks tonight, we would have waited. I've been thinking about those onion rings all week. Truly spectacular. I also want to add that their prices are very reasonable for the experience that we had. I like the low lighting and the aesthetics of their establishment.

The jazz-inspired menu had highlights—the catfish sandwich was crisp and flavorful—though a pasta dish leaned a bit heavy. Staff kept things friendly and easygoing, and the live music gave the evening a relaxed, genuine atmosphere.
